all  fleshfolk share  this  kind  of sea 
 within  them that  soothes  the  ache of 
             the rocky shores             
                                          
         does it erode the stone?         
       this water can be poisoned.        
                                          
                                      
                                          
 a priority is  the flow  of  the  blood, 
 and  the  oxygen level in  it. it's also 
 nice to  maintain a low viscosity level, 
           perhaps by hydration.          
                                          
                                      
                                          
 red  as  night  and  warm  to the  touch
